GBP/USD Recovery

GBP/USD is trading somewhat to the upside. Even though the pair is up some 250 pips since yesterday's low of 1.3110 it still looks like nothing compared to the loss suffered on Friday when the major event of the year took place. The Brexit took away 12% or 18 cents of the Sterling.

However, it appears that the Sterling bulls still have something to offer as they managed to push price to a daily high 1.3371. Although we went to more than 30-year low, it does not look as bad as some analysts portray it.

In the beginning of March the price of GBP/USD was close to 1.38. On the day of the Brexit price went from the irrational and boosted 1.50 to a low of 1.32 and recovered to 1.40 on the same day. Going long now is worth considering as we are still in the aftereffect causing unrealistic depreciation of the GB pound.
